Nagabhusan Senapati was a brilliant engineer of Orissa State in India.  A meritorious student, he studied Mechanical Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology in Kharagapur, India, and then continued with his doctoral work at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, MA, USA.  He joined as a Staff Scientist in Battelle Memorial Institute at Columbus, Ohio and lived there most of his adult life.  His research into the applications of ultra-sonic technology led him to high accolades and thirty patents.

​

Nagabhusan was known for his amiability, modesty, friendliness and utter sincerity.  He was deeply admired and loved by his family and friends.  His untimely death has left behind a void in the scholarly world of Orissa and among his neighbors in Columbus, his friends in school and college and his relatives.  With the support of his family, a few friends have joined together to offer this memorial website in order to help to recant his esteemed memory and build together a life story of scholarship, intimacy and service to the world.
